Ballot harvesting is arguably the most corrupt practice in American politics. It’s illegal in most states because the risk of fraud is so high. Paid collectors can go door-to-door asking people for their ballots to return to the election board. It’s unethical, dangerous, and totally legal in California.
Representative Devin Nunes (R-CA) is opposed to the concept, but realizes the GOP has to adopt the practice if they have any chance of surviving in the far-left state.
“The legislature made it now legal to where I can go knock on your door and get your ballot from you, so they’re mandating that everybody who goes to the DMV gets a ballot,” Nunes said. “They’re mailing ballots out. So you have ballots floating around all over California.”
The GOP currently holds 7 seats in the House, the smallest share controlled by the GOP since 1883. This shakeup, which cut the number of Republicans in the California delegation in half after the midterm elections. They were hesitant to do as the Democrats did, but following the midterms, they’re being force to rethink their position.
“The Republican Party was reluctant to do any of it, but now you’re going to have to see the Republican Party actually begin to vote harvest themselves in California in order to compete,” Nunes said.
Few can argue against the notion that California is the ultimate progressive state, but that doesn’t mean the GOP needs to give up. There are pockets of conservatives throughout the state, making it possible to spread a right-leaning message. But they have to fight the Democrats with the leftist playbook if they’re going to have a chance.
“It’s not good for Democracy to have paid people going door-to-door collecting ballots. It just encourages fraud,” Nunez said. “But if one party does it, the Republican Party has no choice but to go door-to-door collecting ballots.”
It’s hard to imagine the Republican Party ever getting a foothold in California any time in the near future, but people like Devin Nunes are hopeful. The longer leftist policies continue to make the state bad, the residents will realize they need more Republicans.
